Keeping it in the entertainment industry, Aziz Ansari of "Parks and Recreation" has bought a house in Los Feliz for $2.69 million from director Andrew Douglas.

Designed by Buff & Hensman and built in 1968, the Mid-Century Modern post-and-beam home features an inner courtyard that leads to a two-story central hall, 20-foot-high vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and walls of glass.

A living room/dining area and den/study sit on either side of the kitchen, which has ample space for making "sandoozles" (Ansari slang for sandwiches) or "pre-birds" (eggs). There are four bedrooms, three bathrooms and more than 3,000 square feet of living space.

Sliding glass doors open to an outdoor living room patio with a spa, wood decking and a built-in barbecue. A second-story balcony overlooks the swimming pool. The attached carport can hold four "go-go mobiles."

The most park-like part of the property is a walled-in, Zen-inspired garden in which a wooden deck seems to float.

Actor and comedian Ansari, 30, has starred as aspiring ladies' man Tom Haverford on the sitcom since it started in 2009. He was the first person cast for "Parks." His TV movie "Aziz Ansari: Buried Alive," which he wrote and starred in, was recently released. Douglas' directing credits include "The Amityville Horror" (2005).

The property previously changed hands in 2007 for $2.15 million.
